I.Ittlillllslnris to Do. This year there are few questions requir ing settlement , everything being harmonious between the company and the men. Of course there are ono or two matters of miner Importance to bo adjusted , the question of overtime and the Interpretation of tlio schedule adopted last year , but these , It is thought , will bo finished in an hour after the committee elects its ofllrers. Mr. McBridc , In talking to a Bnn man , said : "Everything is very harmonious be tween the company and all the different labor orguni/atlons represented on the sys tem. We are required to meet once a year for the election of ofllccrs , hearing the re ports of the ofllccrs and to consider griev ances , if there are any. While wo are not compelled by our charter to meet in Omaha , It is always advisable to meet where the general olilces of the company are located , and that Is why wo are hero. "I do not expect the least trouble and think that wo will bo ready to go homo In the course of a day or two. Whether the committee will call on Mr. Clark or Mr. Dickinson I am unable to say. At present there is nothing indicated that would need nn olllclal visit to settle. Of course the dole- Rates hero will drop in at headquarters in n iriendjy way , but outside of this there is nothing to warrant oven speculation. " The Barker has been selected as the head quarters for the Brotherhood of Hallway ' .Trainmen and Fred Kundsen of Salt Lake ; and C. P. Hyan of Laramie are in charge until the arrival of the members of the griev ance committee , which holds its election the same time as the conductors. FiiiI.S : VI3KY IIOI'KI'UL. President Chirk on the Union Pacific Somu Aiiiiinil Elections. Yesterday was a busy day about Union Pa cific headquarters , the presence of Mr. Clark and the fact that several annual meetings of auxiliary bodies of the system were to occur , attracting quite a number of people to the general olilces of the company. Mr. Clark , when seen by a representative of TncBci ; yesterday , said that for the first time in three years ho had been able to spend the new year with his family in St. Louis , the exigencies of business having prevented suiih a pleasure for several years past. Speaking generally of the financial standIng - Ing of the Union Pacific Mr. Clark said : "The year Just ended has been a very prpllt- nblo ono for the road and the foreign stock holders , through their representative in this country , Mr. Bossovain , have expressed great satisfaction at the turn things have taken. This Is particularly gratifying to mo , as I came to the road when it did not enjoy the standing It now has among financiers. "As to the future of the road , that Is n hard nut to crack , still I am very hopeful thut 1S91I will show up bigger than 1802. Aft T the annual election wo may bo able to talk more than now about the future policy. At present we are engaged in getting things in shape fur the annual meeting , which oc curs in Apiil. Everything Is runninp smoothly now , for which wo are thankful.11 At 1) ) o'clock yesterday the annual election of the Union Depot company was held In President Kimball's ofllco in the „ Union Pacific headquarters , resulting In the . ivjiiaiiii. i iuatua XUUUK IUU W..PDurkeo. .

"Whether the present council will pass the ordinance looking to the completion o ! the structure I am not prepared to say , bui I think there is a growing sentiment that 1 should bo passed and the depot bo com ploted.

The great Head ing coal combine Is broken. The Now Jer sey Central railroad has withdrawn from It and hereafter will be operated Independently the same as It was before the agreement with the Heading and Lchlgh Valley was untorcd Into. The authorities hero dculinb to speak about the matter , but an ofllclal of the Cen tral this afternoon conllrmcd the truth of the news. IIo said that Attorney Cicncral Stockton was In possession of a communica tion from the Central In which it Is acknowl edged that all Its agreements with the roads In question are cancelled nnd terminated. This applies to the lease under which the coal lands \\ero recently absorbed by the combine. What influences moved the Central to take this step are not known , but undoubtedly fear of action on the part of the legislature had something , if hot all , to do with It , Ili'inlril for Omulm. It Is stated on the authority of Assistant General Freight Agent C. H. Berry that the Chicago Great Western railroad is surveying a line from DCS Molncs to Omaha , and the now road is expected to reach this city In the not distant future. In speaking of the projected extension , Mr. Berry said .yester day : "The survey for the new line from DCS Molncs has been made , but just where the line to Omaha will leave the main line is us yet known only to Mr. Stickney , who is one of the most reticent of men when It comes to giving out information that might turn out as premature , " The line contemplated will glvo an outlet to all Missouri river gateways , Kansas City , St. Joseph , Leavenworth , Omaha and Sioux City , and will make an important increase-to the main line.

At no time In the history of the country has pneumonia been so prevalent as during the winter months of the last two years. In times pa t n common cold was not consid ered at all serious , but of Into years the great tendency of tiolds to result In pneumo nia has made people apprehensive. The trouble Is that colds are not always properly treated. No preparation containing opium , wild cherry or chloroform should bo used , as they have a tendency to dry up a cold , where as it should 1x5 loosened nnd tlio lungs re lieved. It has been observed that when Chamberlain's Cough llemedy Is used the cold never results in pneumonia. The reason is that this remedy1 stimulates the mucous membrane which lines the throat nnd lungs to a healthy action , causes a free expectora tion , throwing off the poisonous matter , and counteracts any tendency toward pneumonia , For sale by druggists.

JURY DISAGREED. .Miiltby Against tlio Modern Woodmen < > f Amcrlni .Still Unsrttlcil. Mr. Daniel S. Maltby will not draw $7,000 out of the treasury of the Modern Woodmen of America as ho had hoped ho might have the opportunity of doing before lie began suit against that fraternity In the federal court , Mr. Maltby used to bo a deputy consul and It was his business to move about from place to place and organize lodges of Modern Woodmen. In the early days of the organi zation , that Is , along about 188o , ho made a special contract with Head Consul J. C. Hoot by which ho was to receive 10 per cent of the general funds of the order in addition to the usual commissions for his services ns organiser for a term of live years , nnd 5 per cent of the general funds for n second term of live years. But two years ago Mr. Hoot was deposed from the position of head consul and the new board of directors canceled the contract made by Hoot with Maltby. Maltby brought suit for the amount duo him on the contract and the amount that ho would have made had ho been nermlttcd to remain in the services of the order and draw 5 per cent of the gcner.il fund in addition to his regular commissions. This suit was brought for the sum of $7,000. and the case was tried last spring and Maltby secured a verdict for the amount sued for , but the verdict was set aside by the judge. The case was taken up in the federal court for a second trial last week and the jury was sent out with the evidence in the case last Saturday at noon. Yesterday afternoon Judge Dunuy called the jury In and as the gentlemen said there appeared to be no likelihood that they would reach an agree ment the Judge discharged them. The jury stood tivo for the defendant and seven for the plaintiff. Ono of the jurors bald that if they had staid out another day ho thouurht they might have agreed upon $1,500 for the plaintiff , but he did not think they would have agreed upon any sum larger than that. In all probability , the plaintiff will make an offoi-t to got another trial. A neglected cold often terminates in con sumption.

Missionary J'redi-rlrlts and Wilt ; Slugged and Kolilicil on Jrntli Street. One of the boldest highway robberies over perpetrated in Omaha was committed on Tcnth street within a block of Farnam about 0 o'clock Sunday evening. Albert Fredericks of Lincoln was sandbagged and robbed and his wife , who was walking at his ido , was knocked down and left almost unconscious on the pavement. The footpads snatched Mrs. Fredericks' ' hand satchel , containing $10 and several articles of personal value. Both Mr. Fred- cricks and his wife were attacked so sud denly that the samlbaggcrs had time to get away before a glimpse could bo had of their faces. It was a bold piece of work and the police have no clew to the perpetrators. Mr. Fredericks , who is a recently returned missionary from Africa , had only arrived in Omaha but a few hours before the assault and was looking with his wife for a stopping place when attacked. Ho was rendered bcnsolcss and Mrs. Fredericks dazed by the force of the blows dealt them. An unsuccessful effort was made to rob the Columbia Clothing compiny's store on Far nam street early Sunday morning. The thieves were frightened off by the awaken ing of Frank Aekloy , a driver for the Wells- Fargo Express company , who was asleep in the building adjoining the clothing store.
